Science Museum reveals new exhibition available for event hire

The award-winning Science Museum in South Kensington has unveiled an exciting new exhibition which is available for event hire from 6 October 2022 until 4 May 2023. Science Fiction: Voyage to the Edge of Imagination is an immersive, genre-defying exhibition that invites visitors to embark on an immersive adventure through the imaginative worlds envisioned in science fiction and discover how they have inspired incredible scientific innovations today.

Guided by an artificial intelligence of alien origin, guests will be placed at the heart of an exciting science fiction story, where they will board and explore a unique spaceship, scout an unknown planet, and investigate how scientists and science fiction creators have imagined and built new worlds to better understand our own.

Science Fiction is available to hire exclusively, and the 60-minute experience can be followed by an evening drinks reception or dinner in either the Energy Hall or Exploring Space galleries. Alternatively, clients can incorporate the Science Fiction experience into an event being held elsewhere in the museum at an additional cost and depending on availability. Science Fiction has capacity for 65 guests at one time, with a maximum of 2-3 groups per event.

Throughout the dynamic and interactive voyage in Science Fiction, guests can uncover iconic objects including authentic items from celebrated science fiction films, TV, and books, as well as paintings, artworks, and photography.

Bryony Mitchison, Events Sales and Operations Manager, says: “We’re really excited to be adding a new event option to our portfolio of spaces from October. Face-to-face events are firmly back on the agenda and now more than ever it’s about creating an experience that will excite and engage guests. Science Fiction is an immersive new exhibition that will not only enhance the event experience but will spark curiosity amongst guests as they enjoy a voyage to the edge of imagination!”
